    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Excellent. Just making sure. The last tip says to use the noose wisely, so that may stump him for a short while. I'm confident he'll get over it, though.

    I don't think he'll understand the sarcasm you're getting at there. Wouldn't you feel just horrible if he hung himself by accident now?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    You don't have to play anything. You can be 1 class if you want to be. Your call. I prefer to be able to do anything I please. If you think that's boring, I'd say that's your issue. I find it great that I can just switch to whatever class my group needs and fill any role. YMMV, I suppose.

    There is no way in hell I'd have done every class to 50 if I had to repeat that inane quest line ad infinitum. ... is what I'd like to say, but I've done it elsewhere, so who knows. Not having to do the same thing over and over was definitely a nice break, though.

    Smartwatches / Fitness Trackers

    Bought a Fitbit One a couple weeks ago. I was happy with my first one (Fitbit Ultra) until it died a few years later. Any pedometer that can last a few years is pretty decent, IMO. Too bad the Pebble pedometer app that I found is so horrible. I'd have just used that. Not that it has any way...

    Sub cancelled. Pity. Maybe I should try it on the PS4 before my time runs out just for the funs.

    TERA

    Guess I'll have to pick a class to delete to try this one. The mid-range combat looks interesting, in a not-an-archer-therefore-not-boring-as-fuck kind of way.

    Child of Light Ubisoft "jrpg" x-platform.

    This game is absolutely worth it. Picked it up for the PS4, that way I can remote play it through the Vita as well. Best part about this: Unlike everything else I've played through remote play, it actually knows you're on a Vita and immediately tells you what controls do what now that you aren't...

    Child of Light Ubisoft "jrpg" x-platform.

    For some reason, I can't buy this on the PS Store. Says I'm not eligible to purchase or download this content. How annoying. I'll try again later today. Wouldn't be the first time that Sony has something wired wrong. It currently shows as purchasable for both PS3 and PS4, though.

    Blitzball is luls at the point I'm at now. I'm using my defenders to score every goal. It's hilarious when I win games 10-0 with only the defenders scoring and Tidus/Wedge/Brother haven't done shit except corral the entire other team away from their goalie. Good times.

    Rickshaw Memorial thread

    Yeah, see, the number of moderators isn't the big issue here (though it's arguable that it's a lesser issue). The quality of some of the loud ones is the issue. There could be 4 moderators, and if 3 of them were OH MY GOD LOOK AT ME WRONG AND YOU GET BANNED, it's still a huge problem.

    Wow. What a bunch of bastards. I hadn't used this in forever so I didn't realize it was written out in 8.1. I useSyncrifyfor backups. Does all manner of Linux/Unix and Windows, but you can only set up one client for free, per server install. Additional clients need to be licensed, or you can...

    Nah, you're not the only one who finds it fun. My god, it took me a while to win that first game against the Al Bhed, but once you do, you're home free. Never lost a game and only 1 point against for the rest of my entire run through (and that was because I was trying to learn a tech and needed...

    1. Yes, NFS has been deprecated in Windows since Windows 8/Server 2012, but it was on its way out in Windows 7/Server 2008 R2. Try setting up an NFS server on 2008 R2 with unix-style credentials. It's a ball of fun because they clearly want it to go away in favour of CIFS, and they're not hiding...

    You can force the system to load the network stack before you can log in. I forget the policy you have to change, but I can go look for it if you need it.

    Unless you have older OSes that have to interact with that box, LM is about as secure as an open paper bag and should be left off. NTLMv1 isn't much better.

    Windows 8

    There was a simplicity about the menus that wasn't broken. I find the ribbon to be an aesthetic change that just gets in the way of Getting Work Done. Kinda like Metro, actually, just not quite as in your face. It's one of those changes that I end up wondering which focus group they were talking...

    The Ribbon has made its way into most of Windows Explorer at this point. But, hey,you already knew this, right? It's not an Office thing. Do you even Windows 8, bro?

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    The game is as casual and noob friendly as most MMOs. People in general, however, aren't, and have the power to vote to remove you from a group if you're a casual. SE can't fix this without removing that power, however, there were other, good reasons for adding votekick in the first place. If...

    Forgot who I was arguing with for a moment here. I said "reasonable people". In the grand scheme of things, Metro doesn't even come close to the top the list of things Windows has done wrong. Of all the UI changes Microsoft has forced on us, I'd say the Ribbon beats Metro handily in the "fuck...

    European? What? I'm Canadian. Yes, Metro is shit. So were Vista's metadata issues. So was Windows ME. So were 15 character NetBIOS name limitations. So were 8.3 file names. Hell, so were 8 character unix user names back at the dawn of time. My point is, shake your head and move on, it works...

    It doesn't "fuck over" anybody. Don't like it? Don't use it. This works 99% of the time for me, and the other 1%, a reasonable person should be able to forgive along with the rest of the annoyances Windows brings to the table.

    LOL. Square Enix customer service at its finest. Lenwen's account was suspended for 9 days on suspicion of RMT. He called them to ask about it and was told: 1. We won't tell you why we suspect you, 2. If we find you haven't done anything wrong, you'll get your account back in 9 days, if not...
